Barry Keith Johnson, during my professional life I have grown many businesses and organizations to commercial success. In addition to public practice I have taken on management responsibility and at times equity of several private enterprises. As an example I was an initiator, part-owner and Director of Dowmus Pty Ltd a waste water R&D and commercialization company which grew to be an industry leader with global recognition as Biolytix.
My personal interests include operating a commercial farm on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland producing olive oil and tea which is sold both locally and internationally. I also try to spend as much time blue-water and race sailing as my commitments allow.
